Remember when mail actually came in the mail? Over the weekend, this postcard arrived on the Arcade Fire website, announcing some new music coming out. Though the postcard had few specifics, Amazon briefly posted a link for the split 12" called Suburbs/Month Of May, with a release date of June 1. That link has since been removed. But, according to the band postcard, the new music should be out in the next week or two. Keep checking the Arcade Fire website for updates.
